As much as I hate them, the livery yard where Moon now is has a woodchip surface. Rode in it a couple of days ago and realised basically anything other than a walk has to be done at one end of the school and I could already feel her movement suffering. Went in there again yesterday and the poor little thing (who incidentally has exceptional balance) hit a deep spot when we were cantering and went splat on her side- thankfully throwing me clear.
So how do I solve this problem? It doesnt seem overly deep on the whole- there is a massive trench where most people ride which I plan to smooth over but dont really know what else I should try to do to improve it. If I cant then shall have to rely on the already pretty wet fields (or move yards....)
